[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Janney budget to run the PSA is 40K a year. Title 1 school PSA reaches back to the same few families to do everything. [/quote] That may well be true but Title I schools benefit from considerable extra ("Title I") funding of at least that much. --> So what's it gonna be: extra parent-raised funds or extra federal funds? I don't think the resources are all that much different. Some argue teachers may be, the gifted and inspired ones going to teach the easy kids and the rest of them in the dumps where you're looking. --> Not what I found: Teachers at our Title I school are great and feel like they're making a difference. They're better at differentiating; they can't afford to fool around and let the classroom slip and manage itself. So argue that you'll see a divide. --> So what. Let others worry about that. What may matter most to you is how your child does. Ours did well and the divide others mention wasn't as clear as it's being portrayed here. You should trust what you see and what you experience and make your best effort to not let anyone put those black & white/high & low glasses on you. It's more complicated and also more special than that.[/quote]
